I was going through the photos the other day and realised that I have taken many food and coffee shots of St. Ali but never blogged since the one I did in August last year – name of post. It deserves a part 2 and even 3. I tend to visit it when I have a long morning at work or when I just feel like chilling out by myself and away from work. It isn’t exactly the quietest cafe in South Melbourne. It is always buzzing with people, the slayer hard at work, beans roasting in the far end and sipping of coffee and kling klang of cutlery.

Collingwood must be very pleased to have the inclusion of Proud Mary to the growing list good cafes and restaurants. It seems to be an explosion of new coffee places opening every week. Cafes with roasters, cafes with expensive Synesso coffee machines, once a day cupping sessions and the list goes on. Coffee drinking has always been popular but now it is trendy. But how much do we know about it? Is it a novelty and I guess only the strongest will survive. Renovation is almost done. It is just the bathroom rails and replacing the window in the dining area. We have moved back and is living quite shabbily but at least all 3 of us are home. Nothing beats home! Home Sweet Home. Coffee to me is something that I need when half a eye is opened to a new day. It never really meant anything more than a stimulant. But after I started this food blog and being exposed to new things and friends, I am beginning to appreciate the humble coffee bean. I am still no expert and there is so much to read, learn and drink! I like the fitout at Market Lane. It has a very spacious set up and one could smell the aromatic coffee beans in the air. This place only serves a small selection of pastries, cakes and bread and home-made jam. So do not expect any other foods and not for anyone that has a big appetite and looking for a decent meal. It is all about the coffee here.  |
